RAFW partial deployment

Hello,

I am facing the automation of partial deployment of an application. For RAFW v7.1.1.4, for was_common_deploy_update_app I have seen that the WAS actions coded in updateApp.py within "actions" folder are:

AdminApp.update 'file'
and
AdminApp.update 'moduelfile'

However, IT department is used of managing this operation by getting a zip file from development in a manner as:

AdminApp.update 'partialapp'

Is there a way of emulating this behavior for current actions? Should we write our own custom action to perform this operation with RAFW?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Jorge.

 I think that you have a couple of options here:
1. Open an RFE and wait for this function to be prioritized/delivered in the product
2. Create a custom action to handle this scenario
3. Have development deliver you either a module or a complete application to update

Hi David,

thanks for posting. This question is pretty old though and I finally developed a custom action for that based on the existing tasks. My custom actions gathers a zip file referenced in the properties (I use a new parameter called "ZIP_FILE"), and calls the addupdate operation for wasadmin AdminApp update.

 Not sure why, but for some reason this popped as a new posting for me this AM... So I figured that I would post an answer.

Sounds like you did a great job adding that custom action - congrats on getting it working.
